Bernha,ner,s Claim for Fees.

w. f. A. Bernhamer has filed suit asking
Judgment for attorney fees to the amount of $500
from George F. McGnnis, administrator of the
estate of William Dawson. During the trouble
some time ago between Mrs. Dawson and Mr..
Dawson's step-son. it appears that Bernhamer
acted as the attorney for Mrs. Dawson, and one
OF his acts was to become her bondsman when
she was sent to Jail For all this he charged lib
orally, and the defense was paid 500, which was
understood to be payment in full FOR his serv-
ices. They claim that he did nothing, and de-
nounce his $500 claim as an imposition The
case is on trial before Judge Taylor

A large number of men are now employed in
the building of the cantever bridge over the
Hudson river. at Pouehkeepsie, n, Y. The
structure will cost 81, 600 900, and will open
direct route from the coal fields of Pennsyl-
vanla, and the cotton fields OF the South, and the
granaries OF the West to the New England
States The Union Bridge Company has bound
ITSELF TO nnish the great structure and have it
open for trains next New Years day. 1t is
said that the enterprise is backed by men
representing over $50, 900, 600. and that all the
big railway companies of New England will be
united by this bridge with the Erie and Penn
sylvanla systems. In this way freight and pas
sengers can go straight through to Boston from
the West and South without passing through
New York or Albany. This will be the only
bridge over the Hudson from Albany to New
York, and it will be the longest and grandest
eantlever bridge in the world It will be one
third higher than the Brooklyn bridge.

Still Struggling for an Existence.

The friends OF the poor old Wabash are loath to
throw up the sponge. and the fact is that they
have valuable property if it could for once be
placed on an honest financial basis. AS the Erie
tor some twenty years was the mich cow Of
dishonest spectators. so has the Wabash beer
for some years past Now a new phase to the
reorganization is reported. The purchasing
committee finding themselves with funds insult
fcient to comply with the demands of the under
lying bondhoiders, and embarrassed by the de-
cision OF Judge Gresham separating the two
divisions cutting in twain the lines east and
west of the Mississippi. have decided to ask the
stockholders for further advice. Under the plan
OF reorganization both the preferred and com
mon stockholders paid in assessments upon their
STOCK, and the purchasing committee has now
under Its control more than So, Gun, OcO. the
amount necessary to redeem the road and dis
charge all the indebtedness of the receivers
The lines east of the Mississippi having been
placed under the control of another court
of equal Jurisdiction, which has appointed
an independent receiver. the purchasing COM
mlttee has decided to ask the parties to the re-
organization of the road whether not they
shall go on and make the payments which tho
plan proposed They say that the prior obliga-
ton upon the Eastern lines are such that the net
earnings from operating will be insufficient TO
pay the fixed charges in question, which they
leave to the stockholders and the general mort
gage bondholders to SETTLE is whether they shall
go and take title to the lines west of the Mis-
sissippi which shall be for their mutual advan-
tage. They say that the earnings of the East
ern lines have been sufficient to meet the interest
upon the bonds with which they are still encum-
bered, but that there is no intention to interfere
with the management of the road through
line and they have still hopes that arrangements
can be made by which the company can be rsor-
ganized and its integrity maintained

Mr.. Ingalls's st. Louis Project.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
BLooMINGToN. Ind, Jan. l8-It is practically
settled that the Big -Four railroad has under Sc
rious consideration the running Of a direct line
from Cincinnati to St. Louis. After an absence
of two weeks, surveyors will be here again in
few days to decide on some preliminaries. Two
routes were surveyed two weeks ago, either one
of which will go through Bloomington. The
idea is to get the straightest lne though this will
prove the more expensive. 1t starts from Co
lumbus. twelve miles west and little north. to
Nashville, crossing Brown county, coming north
of Bloomington, inside the corporation; thence
westl through Monroe. a corner of Owen into
Greene county, where it connects with Switz
City. The idea is to make the road from Switz
City to Efhngham, which is now narrow-ga gauge,
standard gauge This route touches valuable
coal fields, and runs through section of coun-
try that is forty miles from either the Vandalia
or Ohio & Mississippi. Through Brown county
there is no other road. The fact that letters
have been sent inqniring into the taxables of
each township is evidence that the managers are
considering the tax that may be expected

Unnecessary Alarm.

Unquestionably some of the railroad officials
are unnecessarily alarmed regarding the pas
sage of the interstate commerce bill There
sion of opinion of Senator Plumb few days
ago to Jay Gould, in which he in effect said:
ssMr Gould, you might as well make up your
mind that the bill will pass, and when it is
passed you will be surprised to find how little
injury it does your lines and how much it will
chief point of the bill is of course, the long
and-short-haul clause Divested of any qualifi-
eations-@and any sophisfries. this appears to
mean simply that no railroad shall charge more
for transporting any passenger or freight ore
two or more miles. If this provision stopped
here it is perfectly clear that if the railroads
complied with the law, they must either charge
such rates for the transportation of, say
grain from the trans Mississippi States to the
Atlantic ports would effectually deprive
the Western producer of any remuneration for
his labor, or else thar the products of the Allan
practically nothing. But there is condition to
this provision of the bill that the circumstances
and conditions for the short and the long haul
shall be the same, in order to make the restric-
ton to the same rate per ton per mile apply.
This qualification as to the same circumstances
and conditions can be made to apply to the
rates of freight which certain commodities will
bear from one point of shipment as compared
with another. 1t may also be made to apply to
the competition of parallel routes of water trans
portation from points where the railroad must
carry at water rates or get no freight, and prob
ably also TO the competition Of other railroads
at competitive points"

The building of the extension of the Atchison,
Topeka q Santa Fe to Chicago unuuestlonably
means connection with the l., d. g. s.. and
certainly favorable traffic management between
the two companies. No matter which of the
lines surveyed the Santa Fe people take for Chi
cago. the building of short piece Of road would
give the l., d. & S. connection with the Santa
Fe, and the relations between the owners of the
two interests are such as to insure the giant sys-
tenn helping the l.. D, s. S., which is in excel
lent condition physically, and ia to become a
more important road than it has been in the
past.
SAYS old freight man "Evidently the aim
of the trainers of the interstate commerce bill
to bring about a reduction in local rates, but il
the bill has any efficacy at ALL it is far likely
to increase through rates instead. There is ex-
treme elasticity to the phrase similar conditions
and circumstances Probably it will be found
to stretch wide enough to allow all competing
traffic to go through for what the company car
rying it can get for it, while non-competng traf-
fc or freight will continue to go through to be
charged as much as the traffic will bear, subject
to the provision that charges shall be reasonable"
He thought the best feature of the bill was that
sons or places There was efficacy in such pro-
Visions and redress will be given, as has been
shown by recent decisions of the courts.

Free Trade.

The reduction Of internal revenue
and the taking off Of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers,
as well as relieving the burden of home
manufacturers. Especially is this the
case with Green's August Fl0aOer and
Boschee's German Syrap, as the reduc.
ton of thirty. six cents per dozen, has
been added to increase the size Of the
bottles containing these remedies,
thereby giving one-fifth more medicine
in the Is cent size.
The August FloaOer for Dyspepsia
and Liver Complaint, and the German
Syrup for Cough and Lung troubles,
have perhaps, the largest sale Of ana
medicines in the world. The advant-
age OF increased size of the bottles will
be greatly appreciated by the sick and
afflicted, in every town and village in
civilized countries. Sample bottles for
0 cents remain the same size.
